It's a good hybrid to go for. Although the snowploe should really be further forwards, and you should try to get the extra razor on the left-hand disc. What you could do to instantly improve it, though, is attach the RADs by their end AP, rather than the one by the axle, to give you a much wider reach and improve trapping ability. Plus they won't get in the way of the FS weaponry.

Okay, I did this:

Now that I have the setup, I could change the way the RADs are attached. Works better than expected. 1 black, DSA.

Heh, nice.

It works with 1 black? When I did my version of this (which inspired gaz to make his) 1 black wasn't enough.

I found with hs/fs hybrids, that it's better to use a static setup for stability, compared to a snapper.

The power drops by about the minute/1:30 mark. But, as you saw, it beat yours so it's fine. :P

I can see why you might say that but this bot is surprisingly stable. Hooray! A decent MW from me at last :D

...now test it against v4 fury

Make it FASTER for no good reason.

Tested. Wins 40% of the time.

So that's the comment that I asked for? lolol

Gazea2 · « **Reply #950 on:** August 03, 2012, 08:16:12 AM »

Getting very productive again...

The most air-tight chassis I've ever made. Setup is pretty much the same as the MW and it works fine.

NFX · « **Reply #951 on:** August 03, 2012, 09:11:07 AM »

I think you'd save a good amount of weight if you built it pointing the other way, with the SnapperII at the front of the bot. Also, if you use a Reverse RAD for the right-hand spinner, you'd be able to have them both level, and get an equal reach with both sides.

Gazea2 · « **Reply #952 on:** August 03, 2012, 10:04:03 AM »

Not sure how to use up the weight. Any ideas?

Wacky Bob · « **Reply #953 on:** August 03, 2012, 10:07:21 AM »

You could switch two of the razors to irons/maces?

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #954 on:** August 03, 2012, 10:09:49 AM »

Caster?

Gazea2 · « **Reply #955 on:** August 20, 2012, 07:55:23 AM »

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

~~Chained VS just to get on the bandwagon~~
DSA. Side hammers are powered by the green snappers (snapper2s? I always get them mixed up lel) Manages to trap bots quite well.

ty4er · « **Reply #956 on:** August 20, 2012, 08:05:38 AM »

hehe

you can move the mace to the end of the other extender anyway

Gazea2 · « **Reply #957 on:** August 20, 2012, 08:06:02 AM »

Yeah I could, that would protect the extenders more and give the mace some more action.

EDIT: So ty commented and deleted his post before editing my post. Why..?

Looks quite good. Although I'd use a 20cm rather than a T connector to attach the RAD. It's lighter, and MUCH more stable. I'd also try to have the RAD attached more vertically, so there's less chance of it bouncing off the floor.

Gazea2 · « **Reply #959 on:** August 20, 2012, 08:38:00 AM »

Uhh the T connector helps to line up the axles on the motors. I suppose I could try a 20 cm but I thought that would be the best way from looking at other VS'.. I originally had the RAD vertical but it didn't reach too far. Doesn't bounce though. :)
